5.       Teleconferences –Robert

a.       Teleconference tools:

                                                               i.      802 purchased Webex (4 seats) – current contract through August 2020. EC reviewing new Webex contract. 802 Zoom?

                                                             ii.      New meetings in future use SA webex (hostkey only, not username/pwd to start call)

                                                            iii.      Robert looking into sending calendar invites; can subscribe to the 802.11 calendar. Robert to send instructions for subscribing to the 802.11 calendar in Outlook.

                                                           iv.      Reminder – when sending out teleconference announcements, remember to post to BOTH the TG/subgroup AND 802.11 reflectors

6.       Discuss: Feedback on the ability to Enable Motions on WG11 Task Group teleconference calls
Requests [directly, or with CAC reflector ‘cc] to date from PAR, TGaz, TGbb, TGbe

a.       Can motions be amended during the discussion? Yes. Draft motions are announced 10 days prior.

b.      Action – Dorothy to send RR summary sheet to CAC – DONE.

c.       Action – Robert to add indication of planned motions during a teleconference to the 802.11 calendar.

d.      Request that chairs schedule specific time during the telecon; e.g. at the beginning of the call or a specific time during the call.

7.       Discuss: WG11 teleconference meetings in July

a.        802.11 plenary meetings only (not the whole agenda)

b.       Schedule at times for motions – 9/10 AM Eastern, 2 hours.

c.        Teleconference meetings DO NOT count for voting rights.

d.       Suggest 2, on the Monday [ summary of work since Jan] and Friday – Thursday [include liaison reports + typical closing plenary with motions]

e.       30 day advance notice

f.         Meeting agenda 14 days in advance, include actions/motions.

g.       Agree with 2 2 hour calls. No overlapping TG calls; reschedule TG calls if overlap

h.      TGs would need to prepare items for the WG – e.g. Draft to WGLB, send drafts to ISO for information, new SG, new PAR/CSD approval, Liaison responses, SA ballot requests

i.         IEEE-SA webex can support 1K participants, should be adequate

j.        Consider introducing a consent agenda – minutes’ approval, PAR extension motions.

k.       Alternate – use unanimous consent. External motions require a count.

l.         Add plenary meeting information to the main webpage.

m.    All votes have to be roll call/recorded votes -- to verify after the meeing that only voting member voted.  I don't think this can be done during the meeting if we have several hundred people

n.      Use [V] on name for voters

o.      Conduct a practice voting event ahead of meeting

8.       Obtaining and losing WG11 voting rights – EC level discussion now

a.       Mentor – read only is available; to post, need permission. Reflector posting permissions. Read only access and archives are available.  Draft access needs credentials.

b.      New participants who are active should send draft access and reflector requests to the WG chair

9.       Round table

10.   Discuss: 802.11 30th anniversary events – publicity, press release, video, etc – out of time

11.   Adjourn

12.   CAC meetings – every 2 weeks, schedule with 10 day advance notice. Noon Eastern.

a.       June 1, 15, 29

b.      July 6, 19

c.       August 3, 17, 31
